Abstract This study proposes an improved non-contact sensor system for measuring structural displacement. While traditional contact-type sensors such as LVDTs offer high accuracy, they are difficult to install and may suffer from wear or deformation over long-term use. On the other hand, non-contact sensors like LDS can perform measurements without physical contact but often lack sufficient accuracy. To address these limitations, this research introduces a non-contact displacement measurement method utilizing a laser beam and a webcam. An economical multi-point bridge deflection measurement system was developed based on this approach. Furthermore, an AI-based high-precision measurement technique was implemented to enhance both the accuracy and efficiency of displacement estimation. The trained model achieved a maximum and minimum prediction error of 0.0484 mm and 0.0854 mm for the X-coordinate, and 0.0625 mm and 0.0596 mm for the Y-coordinate, respectively.
